Thomas Tuchel out already?! Bayern Munich manager and board have less than a month before a decision is made on their futures

  • Succeeded Nagelsmann in March
  • Won only two of seven games
  • Contract due to run until 2025

WHAT HAPPENED? The former Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain boss returned to his native Germany in March when agreeing to succeed Julian Nagelsmann at the Allianz Arena. He has, however, found the going tough in Bavaria, with Bayern bowing out of the Champions League to Manchester City and the German Cup at the hands of Freiburg.

THE BIGGER PICTURE: The reigning champions have also surrendered top spot in the Bundesliga, with Tuchel overseeing just two wins across his opening seven games in charge. Bild reports that Bayern bosses are now set to meet on May 22 – five days before the club’s final league game of the season – while making big decisions on coaching and directorial staff.
